Satisfy Ice Cream Cravings!-- My new favorite food discovery

Really not trying to start debate......but serious question..........In 3 bananas you are looking at approximately 300-450 calories. Pretty much all sugar. 1C mashed has 200 cals, 1 fat, 51 carbs, 2 protein. 1C of lower fat ice cream (edys slow churned, etc) has 240 Cals, 9 fat, 36 carbs, 6 protein.
Is the idea that you would prefer to have carbs/sugar as opposed to dietary fat? If so why?

^^This^^

I had a cup of the Edy's Slow Churn Double Fudge Brownie (something like that, anyway) this week, with chunks of brownie throughout it, and it was only 300 calories with not a lot of fat. It was awesome, and I would/should have been satisfied with half the amount, it was so yummy.

A great combo, and to keep the calorie count down, is to just use half of a frozen banana, I level tsp. of peanut butter, and a couple squirts of vanilla extract, in the food processor. The food processor aerates the banana, increasing its volume and making it really creamy besides. YUM - I'm eating one of this right now, This makes a single serving that's very satisfying for a lot fewer calories than in Double Rainbow It's a Goodie ice cream(vanilla, with some swirls of peanut butter along with chocolate chips). That Double Rainbow ice cream flavor has 305 calories for just one-half cup! One little square of very dark chocolate(70% or above)shaved over the banana combo is good without adding a ton of calories.

oh, was wondering how to type this in for meals on food report??? guess just put in banana and add the rest
of what we put in blender?? separate???

you could add it to your "recipes" in MFP, then, whenever you make it, you don't have to add everything separately!

I'm totally going to try this!
